U.S. Department of Justice officials have demanded that Los Angeles County, Lancaster and Palmdale pay a total of $12.5 million to residents who the federal government found were victims of harassment and intimidation in the Antelope Valley. The demand coincides with last week´s accusation by the Justice Department that Antelope Valley authorities conducted a systematic effort to discriminate against African Americans who received low-income subsidized housing and that sheriff´s deputies engaged in widespread unlawful searches of homes, improper detentions and unreasonable force.

This is probably Obama’s answer to the blacks who are feeling put out by the all-the-rage homo “rights” push.

low-income subsidized housing

We are talking about Lancaster-Palmdale, who in their right mind would live there if they were not subsidized?

Hell, Bakersfield is an upgrade.

Where is the $X Trillions of dollars reparations to Tea Party Patriots discriminated against by the IRS and this regime and deprived of what would have been ballotorial success in the 2012 elections?

If/after amnesty goes through, blacks will be able to sue for job discrimination. And they’ll get it.

I’ve thought of identifying as black, but I’ve been deterred by the harassment in Antelope Valley.

Where do I line up?

Great idea! We (the Taxpayers) are saddled with paying OURSELVES for the Government's intrusion and violation of our Right to Privacy.

The WHOLE GAME is to take from the "Haves", and give it to the parasite "Have Not's"....which, in common sense language on the street would be "take that white-ass cracker's money and hand it out in da 'hood"....and that's EXACTLY what they're doing.

40 acres, a mule....and a little “walking around” money.

/sarc.

However, most will decline the 40 acres and a mule, which may soon prove to be very, very valuable.

Where this went off the rails from the Federal government’s perspective is when LA County sent in SWAT teams to deal with home inspections that could have been done by an unarmed civil servant politely knocking on doors.

The irony here is that it is the Federal government and the Department of Fatherland Security that has spent the past forty years encouraging local governments to use SWAT teams for everything from collecting on student loans to making sure that people pick up after their dogs at local parks.

In short, the Federal government aided and abetted the behavior in question and they should be held responsible for the militarization of law enforcement and the subsequent violation of people’s rights by a paramilitary militia.
